Los Angeles Times article looks at why women respond better to stress

An article in the Los Angeles Times reports on a study by
Zhen Yan, professor of physiology and biophysics, that showed that
women respond better than men to repeated stress thanks to
estrogen. “It’s kind of a popular view that males and
females respond differently to stress,” she said. “Our
study offers the molecular mechanism.” Articles also appeared
